Plot
Mr. Krabs saw people throwing precious money away. Mr. Krabs ask them about it. Mr. Krabs then decided to make his own well which is “The Eugene Krabs Memorial Wishing Well" and start to earn money with it. Mr. Krabs asked SpongeBob and Squidward to dig a whole and make a well. After they made the well, SpongeBob obtains a promotion in which he has to stay in the bottom of the well all day and night to collect coins that may fall into the well. Several people had made a wish. When Patrick comes to the well, SpongeBob hears him and tries to call him. This makes Patrick think the well is a magic, talking trash can, and says his wish is for SpongeBob to be here to see the magic trash can with him. When Patrick tries to throw his coin into the well he falls inside and sees SpongeBob was already there and he keeps the coin. After a few hours Mr. Krabs came along and ask SpongeBob how much he got that day. SpongeBob then asked Mr. Krabs if their wishes had come true yet? Mr. Krabs said if they dug deep enough all their wishes will come true. The two then attempt to find magic, thinking SpongeBob did not dig far enough before. When SpongeBob digs deeper, he finds a glowing crack on the ground and claims he found the magic. Squidward later comes to the well to tell them how good it feels that they are not able to annoy him. He ends up falling into the well because SpongeBob wished he could see the magic. Inside the well Squidward and Patrick started to fight and was revealed that Squidward was claustrophobic. Squidward was stuck with them all night long. The very next day when they are all out of the well, Squidward wished that he was very far away from there and he got hit by a bus and has gone off very far away. All of Bikini Bottom's wishes seemed to have come true. Mr. Krabs still does not believe in magic so he tries to prove it to SpongeBob that magic does not exist. He then wished up a risky wish, but then finds himself in big trouble. His wish was to be steamed and served with a side of melted butter. The wish had come true, and Mr. Krabs then now believes in magic.

Reception
Wishing You Well received very positive reviews, making it the second most well-received SpongeBob Squarepants episode, and it nearly redeemed Season #4. Karate Island is it's partner episode, so the pair of Karate Island and Wishing You Well are the most well-received episodes of the entire TV Series and Season #4 until maybe a new episode may be as popular as this.
